The Lowdown

Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s see what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks at Jaconé. This spot is an exposed intermediate break, gettin’ its best juice from a SE swell, and it’s a consistent little number. The water’s sittin’ at 72°, and with a water temperature anomaly of 0.5°, it’s just about average for this time of year – nothin’ wild there.

We’re kickin’ off on Wednesday, July 29, but it’s a slow start. The morning’s got tiny 2.3ft swell from the S, with a 12-second period, and combined energy of 174 (moderate). The wind is glassy, which is a treat, but the wave comment says “very ordinary conditions.” It’s surfable, but you’ll be scratchin’ around. The afternoon earns a pass – the wind swings S and cross-on at 6 mph, killin’ the vibe on that 2.6ft swell.

Thursday, July 30, is a write-off. Both sessions are solid zeroes: onshore wind, poor surf conditions. Not worth paddlin’ out.

Friday, July 31, is where the first real glimmer shows up. The morning has 3ft from the S, 9-second period, with a combined energy of 229 (moderate). The wind is ENE at 9 mph, blowin’ cross-offshore, keepin’ the faces clean. This one’s labeled “expect good surf conditions.” It’s not huge, but it’s clean and rideable. The afternoon swell drops to 1.6ft, so stick to the morning.

Saturday, August 1, shapes up as the first true standout. Morning session: 3ft S swell, 12-second period, with energy of 275 (moderate). The wind is NE at 9 mph, offshore, and it’s labeled “gentle offshore and clean.” This is a beauty – clean lines, light winds, and a solid little groundswell. The crowd profile says “sometimes,” so you might share it, but it’s worth it. This is the pick of the first week.

Sunday, August 2, is a comedown. The morning has 2ft with an offshore wind, but it’s “very ordinary.” The afternoon’s energy drops to 90 (weak) – barely a ripple.

Monday, August 3, offers a tiny 2.6ft E swell, 6-second period (short period, weak energy) in the morning with offshore wind, but it’s weak. The afternoon gets cross-off wind but the period stays short. Not a high point.

Tuesday, August 4, brings a notable morning: 3.3ft E swell, 7-second period, with energy of 285 (moderate). The wind is NNE at 6 mph, offshore, and it’s crisp. “Expect good surf conditions” – a solid clean session in the chest-high range.

Wednesday, August 5, is another strong morning. The swell is 3ft from the S, 11 seconds, but the wave energy jumps to 442 (moderate-strong). The wind is N at 3 mph, cross-off, and it’s clean. Good surf conditions. The afternoon holds up too, with 2.6ft and decent energy.

Now, Thursday, August 6 – this is a real standout. The morning has 5.9ft from the ENE, 8-second period, and combined energy of 633 (strong). The wind is NNE at 6 mph, offshore, and it’s labeled “expect very good surf conditions.” That’s a solid overhead swell, clean and powerful. The afternoon drops to 4.3ft, glassy, with energy of 388 – still good. This is the best day of the whole outlook for stronger surfers. The 8-second period means it’s a shorter period

Information about the Jaconé Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Jaconé provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Jaconé can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Jaconé surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Jaconé) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Jaconé may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
